             Exhibit 77Q1(e)
             Kemper International Bond Fund
             Form N-SAR for the period ended 06/30/96
             File No. 811-8818

                            INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT


                  AGREEMENT made  this 4th  day of  January,  1996, by  and
             between  KEMPER  INTERNATIONAL  BOND  FUND,   a  Massachusetts
             business trust (the  "Fund"), and  KEMPER FINANCIAL  SERVICES,
             INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Adviser").

                  WHEREAS,  the Fund  is an  open-end management investment
             company registered under the Investment  Company Act of  1940,
             the shares  of  beneficial interest  ("Shares")  of which  are
             registered under the Securities Act of 1933;

                  WHEREAS, the  Fund  is  authorized  to  issue  Shares  in
             separate  series  or  portfolios  with  each  representing the
             interests in  a  separate portfolio  of  securities and  other
             assets;

                  WHEREAS, the  Fund currently offers  or intends  to offer
             Shares in one  portfolio, the Initial Portfolio, together with
             any other Fund portfolios  which may be  established later and
             served by  the  Adviser hereunder,  being  herein referred  to
             collectively as the "Portfolios" and individually referred  to
             as a "Portfolio"; and

                  WHEREAS,  the Fund  desires at  this  time to  retain the
             Adviser to  render investment advisory and management services
             to  the Initial  Portfolio,  and  the Adviser  is  willing  to
             render such services;

                  NOW  THEREFORE, in consideration of  the mutual covenants
             hereinafter contained, it is hereby agreed by  and between the
             parties hereto as follows:

             1.     The  Fund  hereby  employs the  Adviser  to act  as the
             investment  adviser  for   the  Initial  Portfolio  and  other
             Portfolios   hereunder  and  to   manage  the  investment  and
             reinvestment  of  the  assets  of   each  such  Portfolio   in
             accordance  with  the  applicable  investment  objectives  and
             policies  and limitations,  and to  administer the  affairs of
             each such Portfolio to the extent requested by  and subject to
             the supervision of the  Board of Trustees of the Fund  for the
             period  and upon  the terms  herein set  forth,  and to  place
             orders for  the purchase or  sale of  portfolio securities for
             the Fund's  account with brokers  or dealers  selected by  it;
             and,  in connection  therewith, the  Adviser is  authorized as
             the agent  of the Fund to  give instructions to the  Custodian
             of the  Fund as to the  deliveries of securities and  payments
             of  cash for the account of the Fund.   In connection with the












             selection of such  brokers or dealers and the placing  of such
             orders, the  Adviser is  directed to  seek for  the Fund  best
             execution of  orders.  Subject to  such policies as the  Board
             of Trustees of  the Fund determines, the Adviser shall  not be
             deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have  breached any duty,
             created by  this Agreement or otherwise,  solely by reason  of
             its having  caused  the Fund  to pay  a  broker  or dealer  an
             amount of  commission for effecting  a securities  transaction
             in  excess  of the  amount  of  commission  another broker  or
             dealer would have charged for  effecting that transaction,  if
             the  Adviser  determined in  good  faith that  such amount  of
             commission  was reasonable  in  relation to  the value  of the
             brokerage  and research  services provided  by such  broker or
             dealer viewed in terms of  either that particular  transaction
             or the Adviser's  overall responsibilities with respect to the
             clients  of  the  Adviser as  to  which the  Adviser exercises
             investment discretion.   The Fund recognizes that all research
             services and research that the  Adviser receives or  generates
             are available  for all clients,  and that  the Fund and  other
             clients  may benefit  thereby.  The investment  of funds shall
             be  subject to  all applicable  restrictions of  the Agreement
             and Declaration of Trust  and By-Laws of the Fund  as may from
             time to time be in force.

                  The  Adviser accepts  such  employment and  agrees during
             such  period  to  render  such  services,  to  furnish  office
             facilities  and  equipment   and  clerical,   bookkeeping  and
             administrative services  for the  Fund, to permit  any of  its
             officers  or  employees  to   serve  without  compensation  as
             trustees or officers of the Fund if elected  to such positions
             and  to  assume  the  obligations  herein  set  forth  for the
             compensation  herein  provided.   The  Adviser  shall for  all
             purposes herein  provided  be  deemed  to  be  an  independent
             contractor  and,   unless  otherwise  expressly  provided   or
             authorized,  shall have no  authority to  act for or represent
             the Fund  in any way or  otherwise be deemed  an agent  of the
             Fund.   It  is  understood and  agreed  that the  Adviser,  by
             separate agreements with the Fund, may also serve  the Fund in
             other capacities.

             2.     In  the event  that the  Fund establishes  one  or more
             portfolios other  than the Initial  Portfolio with  respect to
             which it  desires to  retain the Adviser to  render investment
             advisory and  management services  hereunder, it  shall notify
             the Adviser in writing.  If  the Adviser is willing to  render
             such services, it  shall notify the Fund in writing  whereupon
             such  portfolio  or portfolios  shall  become  a Portfolio  or
             Portfolios hereunder.

             3.   For the  services and facilities described in  Section 1,
             the  Fund will pay to the Adviser at  the end of each calendar
             month,  an  investment  management  fee  for   each  Portfolio

                                           2












             computed  by  applying  the  following  annual  rates  to  the
             applicable average daily net assets of the Portfolio:

             </TABLE>

                  The fee  as computed above  shall be  computed separately
             for, and charged  as an expense of, each Portfolio  based upon
             the  average daily  net assets  of such  Portfolio.   For  the
             month and  year in which this  Agreement becomes effective  or
             terminates,  there shall  be an  appropriate proration  on the
             basis of  the number of  days that the Agreement  is in effect
             during the month and year, respectively.

             4.     The  services of  the Adviser  to the  Fund  under this
             Agreement  are not  to  be deemed  exclusive, and  the Adviser
             shall be free to render similar services or  other services to
             others  so long  as its  services hereunder  are  not impaired
             thereby.

             5.   In  addition to the  fee of the Adviser,  the Fund  shall
             assume and  pay  any  expenses  for  services  rendered  by  a
             custodian for  the  safekeeping of  the  Fund's securities  or
             other  property,  for keeping  its books  of account,  for any
             other charges of  the custodian,  and for calculating the  net
             asset  value of the Fund as provided  in the prospectus of the
             Fund.  The Adviser shall  not be required to pay and the  Fund
             shall  assume  and  pay  the  charges  and   expenses  of  its
             operations,  including  compensation of  the  trustees  (other
             than those affiliated  with the Adviser), charges and expenses
             of independent auditors, of  legal counsel, of any transfer or
             dividend disbursing agent,  and of any registrar of the  Fund,
             costs  of acquiring  and  disposing of  portfolio  securities,
             interest, if any,  on obligations incurred  by the Fund, costs
             of share certificates and of  reports, membership dues  in the
             Investment  Company  Institute  or any  similar  organization,
             costs  of  reports and  notices  to  shareholders, other  like
             miscellaneous  expenses  and all  taxes  and  fees payable  to

                                           3












             federal, state  or other governmental  agencies on  account of
             the  registration of securities  issued by the Fund, filing of
             trust  documents or  otherwise.   The Fund  shall  not pay  or
             incur any  obligation for  any  expenses  for which  the  Fund
             intends  to  seek reimbursement  from  the  Adviser as  herein
             provided without first obtaining the  written approval of  the
             Adviser.  The  Adviser shall arrange, if desired by  the Fund,
             for officers  or employees  of the  Adviser to  serve, without
             compensation from  the Fund, as  trustees, officers  or agents
             of the  Fund if duly  elected or  appointed to such  positions
             and   subject  to   their  individual   consent  and   to  any
             limitations imposed by law.

                  If expenses borne by the  Fund for those Portfolios which
             the  Adviser  manages   in  any  fiscal  year  (including  the
             Adviser's fee,  but excluding  interest, taxes,  fees incurred
             in   acquiring   and   disposing  of   portfolio   securities,
             distribution services  fees,  extraordinary  expenses and  any
             other   expenses  excludable   under  state   securities   law
             limitations)  exceed any  applicable limitation  arising under
             state  securities laws,  the  Adviser will  reduce its  fee or
             reimburse the  Fund for any excess  to the extent required  by
             such state securities laws.   If for any month the expenses of
             the  Fund  properly chargeable  to  the  income account  shall
             exceed 1/12 of the percentage of average net assets  allowable
             as expenses, the  payment to the Adviser for that  month shall
             be reduced  and if necessary the  Adviser shall make a  refund
             payment to the  Fund so that  the total  net expense will  not
             exceed such percentage.   As of the end  of the Fund's  fiscal
             year, however,  the foregoing computations  and payments shall
             be readjusted  so that the  aggregate compensation  payable to
             the   Adviser  for  the  year  is  equal   to  the  percentage
             calculated in accordance with Section 3 hereof  of the average
             net asset value as determined  as described herein  throughout
             the  fiscal year, diminished  to the  extent necessary so that
             the total  of the  aforementioned expense  items  of the  Fund
             shall not  exceed the  expense limitation.   The aggregate  of
             repayments, if any, by  the Adviser to  the Fund for the  year
             shall be  the amount necessary to  limit the said net  expense
             to said percentage in accordance with the foregoing.

                  The  net  asset  value  for   each  Portfolio  shall   be
             calculated  in accordance  with the  provisions of  the Fund's
             prospectus or  as  the trustees  may  determine in  accordance
             with  the provisions of  the Investment  Company Act  of 1940.
             On  each day when net  asset value is not  calculated, the net
             asset  value of  a Portfolio  shall be  deemed to  be the  net
             asset  value of such Portfolio as  of the close of business on
             the  last day  on  which such  calculation  was made  for  the
             purpose of the foregoing computations.

             6.    Subject to  applicable statutes  and regulations, it  is
             understood  that trustees, officers  or agents of the Fund are
             or may be  interested in  the Adviser as officers,  directors,
             agents, shareholders  or  otherwise,  and that  the  officers,
             directors,  shareholders  and agents  of  the  Adviser may  be
             interested in  the Fund otherwise than  as a trustee,  officer
             or agent.

             7.     The  Adviser  shall  not be  liable  for  any error  of
             judgment or  of law or  for any  loss suffered by  the Fund in
             connection with the matters to  which this Agreement  relates,
             except loss resulting from willful  misfeasance, bad faith  or
             gross  negligence   on  the  part   of  the   Adviser  in  the
             performance of its obligations and duties or by  reason of its
             reckless disregard  of its obligations  and duties  under this
             Agreement.

             8.    This Agreement  shall become  effective with respect  to
             the Initial Portfolio  on the date hereof and shall  remain in
             full  force until  April 1, 1996, unless  sooner terminated as
             hereinafter provided.   This Agreement shall continue in force
             from year to year thereafter  with respect to  each Portfolio,
             but only as long as  such continuance is specifically approved
             for each  Portfolio at least annually  in the manner  required
             by  the Investment  Company  Act of  1940  and the  rules  and
             regulations   thereunder;  provided,   however,  that  if  the
             continuation  of  this  Agreement  is   not  approved  for   a
             Portfolio, the Adviser may continue to serve  in such capacity
             for such Portfolio  in the manner and to the  extent permitted
             by  the Investment  Company  Act of  1940  and the  rules  and
             regulations thereunder.

                  This  Agreement  shall  automatically  terminate  in  the
             event of  its assignment  and may  be terminated  at any  time
             without  the payment  of any  penalty by  the Fund  or  by the
             Adviser on sixty (60) days written notice to  the other party.
             The Fund may effect termination with respect  to any Portfolio
             by  action of the  Board of Trustees or  by vote of a majority
             of the outstanding voting securities of such Portfolio.

                  This Agreement  may  be terminated  with  respect to  any
             Portfolio at  any time without the  payment of any penalty  by
             the  Board  of  Trustees  or  by vote  of  a  majority  of the
             outstanding voting securities of such  Portfolio in the  event
             that it  shall have been established  by a court of  competent
             jurisdiction that  the Adviser or any  officer or director  of
             the Adviser has taken any action which results in  a breach of
             the covenants of the Adviser set forth herein.

                  The terms  "assignment" and "vote  of a  majority of  the
             outstanding voting  securities"  shall have  the meanings  set


                                           5












             forth in the Investment Company  Act of 1940 and the rules and
             regulations thereunder.

                  Termination of this  Agreement shall not affect the right
             of the  Adviser to receive payments  on any unpaid balance  of
             the compensation described  in Section 3 earned prior to  such
             termination.

             9.   If any provision of this  Agreement shall be held or made
             invalid by a  court decision, statute, rule or otherwise,  the
             remainder shall not be thereby affected.

             10.   Any notice  under this  Agreement shall  be in  writing,
             addressed  and delivered  or mailed,  postage prepaid,  to the
             other party at such address as such other  party may designate
             for the receipt of such notice.

             11.   All parties hereto  are expressly put  on notice  of the
             Fund's Agreement and Declaration of  Trust and all  amendments
             thereto,  all of which  are on file with  the Secretary of The
             Commonwealth  of   Massachusetts,   and   the  limitation   of
             shareholder  and trustee  liability contained  therein.   This
             Agreement has been  executed by and on  behalf of the  Fund by
             its   representatives   as   such   representatives   and  not
             individually, and  the obligations of  the Fund  hereunder are
             not   binding  upon   any  of   the  trustees,   officers,  or
             shareholders  of the  Fund individually  but are  binding upon
             only the assets  and property of  the Fund.   With respect  to
             any  claim by the Adviser for recovery  of that portion of the
             investment  management fee (or any other liability of the Fund
             arising  hereunder)  allocated  to  a   particular  Portfolio,
             whether  in  accordance  with  the  express  terms  hereof  or
             otherwise, the Adviser  shall have recourse solely against the
             assets of that Portfolio to satisfy such claim  and shall have
             no recourse  against the  assets  of any  other Portfolio  for
             such purpose.

             12.    This Agreement  shall be  construed in  accordance with
             applicable  federal law  and (except  as to  Section 11 hereof
             which shall  be construed in accordance  with the laws of  The
             Commonwealth of  Massachusetts)  the  laws  of  the  State  of
             Illinois.











                                           6












             13.    This  Agreement is  the  entire  contract  between  the
             parties relating to the subject  matter hereof and  supersedes
             all  prior  agreements between  the  parties  relating to  the
             subject matter hereof.

                  IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Fund and the  Adviser have caused
             this Agreement  to be executed  as of the  day and  year first
             above written.
